They threw him out for entering the ground with it. And subsequently when the issue was raised with the club, CB refused to apologise and put the blame on Al to his face. Anyway, his family wishes he would come back too but he is too proud unfortunately.

Come on Al,
You love the club, you love watching Rugby League, you've got friends at the games who want you there with them, you've got people who respect your opinion on this forum, you've watched Trinity when we were up the creek so come and watch now when we're looking competitive.

Your points been made, it's time to come back
Life's too short!

We need a plan - plan A a kitchen chair and some rope and a few of us surprise attack grab him sit him on chair and I will rope him down fasten two long poles to each side of said chair and carry him down to BV match day.
Plan B nag nag nag him worse than a frenzied mother in law so he relents and comes down of his own accord to get away from the constant nagging.

Come on All you know you want to be at BV when its rocking.

I might be a minority on here but I see this overblown incident differently.

The other year I had my picture all over the net and in the Wakefield Express accused of trouble at the Widnes game. The later video evidence from Sky cleared me on all accounts. All too late I had been smeared and humiliated, all because of the decision of an employee at the club to handle it this way. I was fuming with the way I had been treated. It didn't stop me going again.

Wakefield Trinity has been here over an hundred years and will still be here in another hundred. Over that time we've had and will have numerous owners. Difference of opinions will always exist with procedures and policies with fans either individually of collectively. To abandon a life long passion and loyalty over a disagreement about procedures is childish and pathetic. I don't know the guy but he come accross as an individual with a big Ego that needs to be massaged.

That last bit couldn't be further from the truth, but you weren't to know that so you're forgiven!

Bit harsh at the end but get the point - but I suppose we are all different.

On reflection maybe the last bit is a bit harsh as I don't know him personally. Principled to point of been irrational, maybe that’s a better way of putting it.

For a proud man like him Its one thing swallowing your pride totally different forsaking your principles.

More accurate assessment than your previous one that's for sure
